Got the game on the 12th. It was the limited edition, with the game, BD documentary disc and OST CD packed in. I also picked up the Limited Edition hardcover guide as well. Didn’t use the guide until after I beat the game.
I started the game on Thursday and beat it this Sunday. I can’t remember the last time I’ve beaten a game so quickly after first purchase. My impression of the game: I think I can retire from gaming. If I had to pick a time to quit playing games, for the rest of my life without buying another game, this would be the game I would pick for my swan song. Its polished to perfection, production values are just ridiculous. And everything in MGS comes to a perfect man-child fantasy end for me. It’s over the top, like a Sergio Leone film but with Mechs and Ninjas and all that anime jazz.
Now I’m just hoping the rest of the Malden will finish the game, because I want to talk about this sucker without holding anything back. Get to it, I don’t care if you’re just renting a PS3 to play it, JUST PLAY IT.
I’m on it. I’m enjoying it quite a bit. I’ll have my opinion in a week or so.
I have about 2 solid weeks of touring coming up. After that I’ll pick one up. I wouldn’t get a chance to play it now anyways. I do have the LE already though just to cover the bases. Mine came with a glossy book, with history and CG art.
The glossy is standard issue with the Limited Edition I think. Also, I started my second playthrough for all of the unlockables. There is a shit ton of secrets in the game.
Chad, did you pick up the MGS Bundle? If so, I envy your PS2 Backwards Compatability….
Crap man I am no where near being in a position to play this or buy a ps3
bummer. The suspense is killing me!! Well maybe not killing me but its there. Anyone got Wii fit yet?
Just rent a PS3 from blockbuster. Actually, I’m not 100% sure if they still let you do that…..
But yeah, if you can just rent it, then rent it.
